I definitely would not put a foundation under a house that's only got 6 under it--that will make any further remodeling nearly impossible, such as replumbing, rewiring, insulating, etc. Better to get it at least 24 off grade. Well, our problem is that the house is apparently not well supported with its current setup.
A Baker's cyst is swelling caused by fluid from the knee joint protruding to the back of the knee. Baker's cysts are common and can be caused by virtually any cause of joint swelling . A Baker's cyst may not cause symptoms or be associated with knee pain and/or tightness behind the knee, especially when the knee is extended or fully flexed. Baker's cysts can rupture and become complicated by spread of fluid down the leg between the muscles of the calf (dissection).
A Bakers cyst, or popliteal cyst, is a bulging lump behind your knee. Inside the lump is a sac filled with fluid. The cyst is caused by fluid buildup in your knee joint. This can happen if you have a knee injury, such as a cartilage tear. Osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis can also cause an abnormal buildup of joint fluid. Common signs and symptoms: 1  A lump or swelling in the back of your knee when you stand or walk. 2  Knee swelling that goes away when you bend your knee. 3  Knee pain. 4  Stiffness or tightness in your knee that may get worse with movement.
